Jetta, I think I saw that blue one at a cruise in a few weeks back.
 
Tux, is that it?



I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

I agree with  Joel...POS! Looks like crap, diminishes handling, and illegal in most States. Most state statutes either control the amount of lift or the bumper hieght due to Federal safety standards. It just that nobody enforces it. I think that's about to change here.

Yep I believe it is.....

I guess from my perspective I don't feel it is right to openly say I don't like another persons originality. I may not particularly care for the item but respect them for their taste. I have suffered through listenin to people tell me my trucks to were to high, car was to loud, shouldn't have modified this or that. It's an opinion and opinions are just that it doesn't necessitate that they be shared....

I kinda' like the '70s and '80s "boats" with the 22" rims. Yeah, anything larger than that just looks a bit dorky.

I think the blue vette looks hot with the rims too.

What happened to the lowriders putting small wheels on the Chebies? It's just crazy, I tell you crazy!

All of the left-over lowrider rims from the '70s/'80s are now being crammed outside of the fenders of Hondas and Mistusbishis!
